Writing a letter to a Russian Women

Tips to get you started....

Your first letter should always present a general description of yourself. This would include your age, height, weight, hair and eye color, your completion, hobbies, skills, family and any other details that you care to describe. It is recommended that you mention your occupation or the kind of work you do, and the place where you live.

Use short understanding words and sentences in your correspondence. If you think that it might be hard to read your handwriting, type and print your letter as possible. It makes it so much easier for the Russian ladies to read or if necessary to have translated. If you have a very neat and presentable penmanship then handwriting would be more personal. However we would advice you no matter how good or bad your handwriting is to send your letters in both printed and handwritten form.

Make several copies of the sheet with ladies' addresses for your future use, put the lady's address in English and in Russian Cyrillic) on the right hand side of your envelope and place your address in the top left corner. It is a must that your return address be typed not handwritten. Sometimes we receive letters from ladies asking us to help them to locate our clients whose addresses they cannot read because of their illegible handwriting. Please don't forget to enclose in your first letter to each lady the Introduction Letter that you have received with your package from us.

It is very important to include at least 2-4 color photos in your first letter that will show your close up look, full body view and your lifestyle. Try to pose with a friendly and pleasant smile. Remember, a good photo is worth a thousand words and can make a great impression. If you have a dog, cat or any other kind of pet include them in your photos too. Most Russian ladies enjoy all types of pets.

If you send your letter overseas by regular Airmail, the rate is $0.60 for the first half an ounce (approximately one letter-size and one photo) plus $0.40 for every next half an ounce or the weight. If you enclose more pages or photographs and you are not sure, send your letter directly from Post Office. Always place an "AIR MAIL" or "PAR AVION" sticker on it. Usually it takes from 5 to 10 days to be delivered one way. Sometimes it takes less than that, but you cannot count on it.

You also can send your letters by Registered Mail which is more secure way to correspond, but sometimes it takes longer to be delivered than regular Airmail.

If you want to expedite your correspondence, you can use Express Mail (or International Priority Airmail). According to our Terms of Services all of the ladies we present supposed to reply to the all the first letters from the men and indicate whether they are interested in continuing correspondence. In order to be sure it is delivered properly we recommend to send at least all of your first letters by Express Mail. Express Mail is fast (it takes from 5 to 7 days to get there) and convenient, but you cannot use it for all cities. To find out whether or not your lady's city is on the list contact your Post Office. Please note, that you cannot send your letter by Express Mail if the correspondent's address says Poste Restante or P.O. Box.

You can send a telegram to any place in Russia, no matter how small and remote it is. Just call your local Western Union office to do it. Also you may use fax and/or email. If you correspondent doesn't have one available at her, relatives' or friends' house, she can check at her local Post Office whether they provide fax and email forwarding service she may utilize to speed up the correspondence.

SOME GOOD ADVICE

Start with writing to as many ladies as possible. This will increase your chances of success.

Print and enclose several labels with your return address for the lady to use and avoid misspelling.

Do not call the lady before she has received a letter from you. Ask in your first letter if you can call her on the phone and what is the best time and day to call.

Make copies of the letters you send to the ladies in case you need to refresh your memory on what you have wrote before.

While corresponding try the best you can to make it easier for a lady to understand you. Avoid using slang, professional jargon and words that could be easily misunderstood.

Do not send money to someone you don't know well and/or long enough or if you have any reasons not to trust the person. If you ever have any complains regarding the ladies we present please report them to us immediately.
